Blessings

There have been so many songs that have touched me in the last several months. I truly believe that the Lord uses music to speak to us sometimes. It is one way that He uses to get our attention and to minister to us when we need it the most. On one of the hardest days last week I was reading Kelly's Korner, and she had done a post about blessings. At the end of her post was this song, "Blessings" by Laura Story. It is a very powerful song and it was just what I needed in that moment. The chorus is what really got me, but the whole song is beautiful.

Chorus

‘Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
And what if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy
And what if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise
